Lantern Fair

Famous quotes containing the words lantern and/or fair:

It’s time to take the window to see Leerie going by;
For every night at tea-time and before you take your seat,
With lantern and with ladder he comes posting up the street.”

An outridere, that lovede venerie,
A manly man, to been an abbot able.”
